Hi guys,

I've just started playing with the beta. But just one quick request, something I also brought up with Ninja 6:

PLEASE please please please get rid of File->Flatten Everything, or at least take out the hot key of 'F' for Flatten Everything.

I can't be the only one that uses the keyboard to get around menu options... and I'm deathly afraid of hitting Alt-F, and then having my keyboard accidentally skip and hitting 'F' again. I never, ever, ever want to flatten everything.

I believe you can remove the Hot Key for this? If not, let me know.

Ray,

It looks like the hot key manager does have a special "hot key" for Flatten all positions.

But just to be clear, I'm not talking about a single key command supported by Ninja... I'm talking about the standard, menu-based hot key that Windows provides support for. If you click alt-f, you highlight "File" in the menu window. If you type 'f' again at this point, you automatically flatten all.

This is pretty low on the priority list... but I'm still terrified about *that* day (and it *will* come) where I screw up and hit that key combination.

Got it, thanks for clarification. Not sure you will find much solace in this but in 5+ years, I am unaware of a user running into the situation you explained.
